Question regarding default routing in Juniper (OSPF and BGP)

mrblackmamba343

1. In Cisco default routes can be propagated by using the default information originate always even if a static default route does not exist in the routing table. Is there a similar command for JUNOS?
2. In BGP a default route can also be sent to a neighbor by using "default-originate" command, Is there one similar in Juniper? I created a policy and exported an exact default route 0.0.0.0/0 but it wasnt sent to the neighbor

I will be adding more question as I read the JUNOS cookbook and play around with JUNOS to figure out how it works.

In Junos you'll need to create a default route (0.0.0.0/0) that is resolvable, that is the next hop needs to be reachable through the routing table, before you can advertise it.

A simple, and often used, way to do this is to create a 0/0 static route that has the next hop of discard. This will allow the default route to become active in the routing table and then it can be advertised to which ever routing protocol you desire.
